Tonight was some night, I gotta say. I had some sex tonight, and me and B got into some trouble with some bad peeps. We definitely kicked ass, so far. These guys think it's easy to take out a slayer. That shit cracks me up. First, it was some yellow demon. I twisted it's neck, but I guess it wasn't really dead. The dude came up to us at the

I glared at her. Sadly, I was thinking the same thing she was thinking. This dress wasn't cheap and it was completely ruined. This whole night was ruined.
"Cheer up. We're still alive, B. We'll find whoever's behind this, then we'll kick his ass. No sweat. Just trying to lighten the mood before we run into something else."
"Thanks. I know you mean well, Faith. It's just, I want to know who's behind all of this. Yeah, we're targets, but this is something different. There are too many people after us tonight. I think they are all working together for someone." I can say that this person was going to pay when I found him or her. "Do they actually think they're going to get away with this?" Faith looked at me. "Sorry, I was thinking out loud."
When we reached the school I saw something at the corner of my eye. I looked and I saw two guys sneaking around with guns. I tapped Faith to give her a heads up. They saw us.
"Shit!"
Quickly, we went through the doors.
"They're gonna come in here. We gotta do something."
Faith was right. There's no doubt in my mind that they would come in here. We ran throughout the halls. I stopped when I saw blood on the floor. It trailed into the classroom. Slowly, we walked into the classroom and saw two dead bodies on the floor. "It looks like our two boys were in here." There was blood all over the floor. It was a gruesome sight. "Giles." I ran out of the room and down the hall toward the gym.
I got to the beginning of the hall toward the gym. "Giles!" He was on the floor. I knelt down beside him. I noticed the tranq gun beside him. I checked his pulse. Faith finally caught up. "He's alive. I think he was shot with a tranq. Help me pick him up. We'll put him in the library. We need to find Xander, too." We picked him up and took him in the library. We put Giles on the couch in his office. I took the tranq gun and headed toward the door. "Let's give them a nice show."

This was definitely the work of Hans and Fredrik Gruenstahller, and the Mayor had said that he wanted to avert chaos, and didn't necessarily want the vampire slayers dead, tonight. I didn't want them dead tonight, either. I wanted to have zero chaos, but I had been too late. There gunshots and I didn't think that the dumbkopf Gruenstahllers would be plugging innocent children with the heavy ammunition, so, my anger level increased, as I leapt on top of the school to get a view of the situation.
Part of me was going to kill these two all of the more, if they had killed the slayers with bullets, without using torment, and mental anguish against them, like I planned to do.
They were both outside. One of them, Hans, had rushed up the road as if he were going after somebody in one of the autos. The other one, Fredrik ahd just come out and he was closer to the school and seemed to be looking around.
It was time to kill him, take his gun, and before killing him, extract someinformation from him, like say, if the slayers were still alive. I was about to do that, when I saw the two girls emerge cautiously from the school, carrying what seemed to be a tranquilizer gun. Slayers weren't very smart. Tranquilizer darts versus automatic weapon bullets? Then again, slayers weren't supposed to kill humans. But, it had to be the two of them. It had to be.
Before I leapt down, I saw, in the distance, my old friend from the mansion, and suddenly worried about the sacks filled with cash in the van that I had taken, and that Fredrik now saw. I didn't have time to worry, and as I jumped down, the scne was amazing. This other vampire was about to get Hans from behind, as Hans and Fredrik were about to unload bullets into the slayers.
Hans was about to fire, when he heard his brother screaming, as I came down on him, knocking the gun out of his hands.
"Drop the gun, Hans, or your brother here dies."
I whispered to Fredrik that he was dead, anyway for shooting me in the not so distant past, and he told Hnas to fire, and Hans did, ripping bullets into his brother, who I used a shield, and didn't get to kill at all as it turned out.

Suddenly, cars started screaming past; cars with open windows and teenagers yapping aboout the gunfire that they had heard and who was behind it. They didn't seem to know, but I did. I sprinted towards where the cars were leaving and came up, from the woods, upon one of the Germans with machine guns.
Bingo.
I rushed him, and watched as he turned and looked at Buffy and the brunette with her. Buffy was carrying a gun of some kind, but from what I knew, slayers didn't kill humans. They were about to get shot, so I closed fast, ready to attack, when all of a sudden, the big German vampire attacked the other hitman. The hitman that I approached fired towards his brother and took his brother apart, trying to hit the other vampire, after the other vampire had told Hans to drop the gun.
Hans, didn't though, and when he knew that the other vampire, whom he called Boris between sobs of tears was not going to drop his brother as a shield, he turned towards Buffy and the brunette.
"Well, slayers, I've killed my brother, now I'm going to kill both of you, Boris and then get my money."
They froze, and he aimed, as in one move, I knocked the gun from his hands, from behind, turned him around, and with one movement from each hand, snapped his neck like a twig and watched him drop to the ground.
Now, came the stare down as I moved away from my victim, and towards Buffy and the brunette. This Boris, the other vampire didn't seem to approach them like I did, and made his way ahead, towards the white van, that had the money, which I didn't care about in it. I looked, briefly at him, as he turned and looked at the three of us, who could, now, virtually touch.
"They didn't kill anyone, did they? I heard students driving away, talking about gunfire."
I wasn't even remotely worried about the tranquilizer, which was now easily visible, in Buffy's hands, or how the brunette and Buffy were studying Boris and I.

"He's alive. I think he was shot with a tranq. Help me pick him up. We'll put him in the library. We need to find Xander, too."
I helped B carry Giles to the library. He was gonna be out for a little while. Hopefully, when he wakes up all of this will be over. There was still Xander to worry about. He was coming over here to let Giles know what was going on. We put Giles in his office on the couch. B grabbed the tranq gun and looked at me.
"Let's give them a nice show."
I looked at her. B was losing her pun streak. She coulda came up with a better pun. "They're not gonna live long enough to see a show." We walked down the halls and went back outside to face the big guys. I didn't see them. "They gotta be hiding somewhere B. There's no way they left. They're obviously here for us." We walked closer to the street and then we heard gun shots. "What the hell..."
There was this huge guy and he held one of the brothers against him. The twin guy shot and killed his own brother. I guess it coulda been an accident since the guy used him as a shield. We looked at the scene with our mouths to the floor. The other half turned toward us. Me and B got into position, waiting for him to shoot at us. Then outta nowhere this guy comes running and snaps the dudes neck.
We watched the big german looking guy walk away toward a white van. The other guy looked at us.
"They didn't kill anyone, did they? I heard students driving away, talking about gunfire."
"Why would we answer your question? We don't even know you, man. Who the hell are you, anyway?" I crossed my arms over my chest. I'm thinking he's a vampire. I know B could sense it.

This strange guy was standing in front of us. I noticed to things, immediately. One, he was a vampire. Two, he helped us. Faith didn't waste any time jumping down his throat. I held Faith back from charging at him. "Faith, wait." She gave me a confused look. "He saved us. I'm sure he has a good explanation." I looked up at the guy. I know this is a horrible time to say, but he's cute.
"I'm Buffy and this is Faith." Faith gave him a glare. "We're slay.." Faith elbowed me. "We're uh...sl...slow students?" I gave him a nervous look. My eyes were wide. He didn't need to know who we were, yet.
"They didn't kill anyone, did they? I heard students driving away, talking about gunfire."
"They killed two students, during the Homecoming dance. I guess they were trying to kill us too. I didn't even know who they were. No one else was killed." I looked closely at him. "Let me guess, you know who they were?" I looked at Faith. "Ok, now I think it's time to tell us who you are and who those two twins were and that big guy that just drove away in the white van. You don't want to make us mad, either. Oh, and I already know you're a vampire." I smiled.
I didn't get the feeling that he wanted to hurt us. He listened to every word I said and he didn't look away from me, much. He knew how to pay attention. That's not a bad thing. I wanted to know who this guy was and he was going to tell us everything. Or, at least I hope he would. Besides, if he didn't tell us anything, we could beat it out of him.
I've been hanging around Faith way too much.

This other vampire was so worried about everything. He was worried about whether or not the now very much satisfyingly dead Gruenstahller brothers had killed students that he didn't even know. I didn't know what this guys deal was.
I got into the van, looked back at the money, started it, and headed towards the slayers, who would be next on my hit parade, and knew that planning their death's would be as exciting as anything that I had ever done, give or take, in a very long life.
I knew that somehow, this vampire was going to be a problem, though. I could sense it on him. A soul. Like Angelus, who had been lost to my radar, although he was said to be over here, in America, this vampire had been infected with a soul and now did what he did to protect these girls, who killed our kind. I wanted to warn him, but somehow, being the strategist that I was, knew that it wouldn't do any good, and knew that I wanted to keep things as suspenseful for the three of them as I possibly could.
I stopped near the three of them. "That was close, ladies. I just don't know how ever the two of you will repay me? Possibly with your own lives?"
They looked at me, at first, possibly thrown by my accent, and then by words, as I smiled and screeched away, stopping to pick up Hans and then Fredrik, before heading towards the cabins to clean up more remains.

I sized the brunette up, and then looked upon Buffy, safe, although having a weapon that she could put me down with and felt warm inside. I smiled. She was real and she was safe, for now, and my soul, for the first time, didn't ache, didn't bother me over some of my past sins.
"Faith, wait."
So the other girls name was Faith, and by the power that I was reading on her, she was also this other slayer.
"He saved us. I'm sure he has a good explanation."
They could sense what I was. She was giving me a chance to explain myself. They were about to get medieval on me and who could blame them? They had been targets all night and just because I had killed a human in front of them to save them, didn't mean that I was off of the hook.
"I'm Buffy and this is Faith. We're slay...We're uh...sl...slow students?"
I smiled, trying to reassure them that they were safe. The German and myself had been taking care of their enemies all night.
"They killed two students, during the Homecoming dance. I guess they were trying to kill us too. I didn't even know who they were. No one else was killed."
I was expecting my soul to scream at me, but it didn't. Two more had died.
"Let me guess, you know who they were? Ok, now I think it's time to tell us who you are and who those two twins were and that big guy that just drove away in the white van. You don't want to make us mad, either. Oh, and I already know you're a vampire."
I started to answer, when the van approached us.
"That was close, ladies. I just don't know how ever the two of you will repay me? Possibly with your own lives?"
The idiot just drove away and now it was clear to me, being a hunter, that he had only saved them or helped to save them on this night so that he could have the pleasure of killing them himself and then spread the news to all of his underworld friends after. He picked up the bodies and drove away and when I looked back over, I saw a foot connect with my jaw, sending me sprawling to the ground.
